A Place We Call Home

Thibault Gallery is pleased to feature a collection of paintings by Beaufort artist Mac Rogers during the month of October. Rogers has titled the collection “A Place We Call Home” – and the paintings reflect the reasons why he feels that the Lowcountry is truly “home.” Having survived a camping trip to Hunting Island as a Cub Scout in 1958 from “Metropolitan” Orangeburg, SC, Mac vowed never to return to the mosquito, heat and humidity ridden jungle. Flash forward to now – watching boat traffic on the Beaufort River from under the canopy of oaks at Whitehall Point complete with a lunch of LT’s fried chicken. The skyline is dominated by the steeples of the Parish Church of Saint Helena, the Baptist Church of Beaufort, and Trinity Baptist Church – not high rise commercial buildings.

By Margaret Evans, EditorIt’s getting down to crunch time, people. And I’m not talking about a pleasant stroll through the autumn leaves. After what feels like the longest, most grueling and demoralizing election season anybody can remember – and some of us are pretty old – the big event is almost upon us. Finally.

Ahhh, Fall is Near

After being out of town for two weeks I was delighted to return and find cooler mornings for the first time in many months. Yes, it is still hot as blazes during the day but the mornings are giving me hope.   I am sure this feeling is similar to what those from the far north feel like when the snow begins to melt. It’s a sign, and a good one at that.

The Eisenhower Decision Matrix

Funny, I never would have imagined speaking of Buddha and Dwight D. Eisenhower in the same breath. And yet, like old friends, they seemed to know that I was in desperate need of a chat, and they both arrived on my doorstep, as if bearing a nice cabernet and a shoulder.

Nice Work

“Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it.”
- Steve Jobs
